[QUOTE=Capnscarlet;45785805]When you say:
I assume you don't mean generally, like journalism, and keeping the armed forces accountable to the population and all that?[/QUOTE]
No no, the armed forces should be accountable to the people at home. War journalism is fine. But reporting on operations as they happen seems pointless to me, spreading the news that operations are happening to more people, who just don't need to know. The things that really do need to be put in the public eye, can always be put there after the operations end, for example the case of the Royal Marines who murdered a Taliban insurgent. All I'm saying is that there's no need to report on current theatre operations when the public will lose nothing from finding out that the operations happened, immediately after their conclusion, and those on the ground would be safer. I'll use this article as an example: It's guaranteed that IS or IS contacts have now seen this article, and where they may not have known what aircraft to look for before, they will now be vigilant to spot Rivet Joints overhead, and if they see one, they can take it as an indicator that the SAS is operating in the area. These guys aren't primitives, and they are reading [i]all[/i] the news we at home are distributing about the war.
